I was supposed to blog last Saturday, Sunday and yesterday butttttt.. I found myself immersed in school work, stress and attempts in getting a good night's sleep. Then I realized that as long as I wanted to keep my grades up and keep my "social life" running smoothly, I had to give up the sleep. Darn.

I'll just summarize what happened to me while I was gone.

Saturday - I went to Fourplay to watch the tournament there. Hannah wasn't able to come since she was at the beach. All I remember was that Joey and Enzo won out of 3 games, Ate Renren and Ate Ruby won all games so they moved onto the semi-finals, and Topet and EJ won a game. Also, I ate lunch at Edong's with Ate Danica. After that, I went to SM to do the groceries with my dad. Then, home sweet home.

Sunday - Gah, this day was great. After church, we went to Victoria to get some stuff and I randomly found brightly colored pants in the tiangge that were in my size (soooo AMAZING!). I checked them out and woah, they cost PhP 300 ONLY. Even my dad was surprised. HAHA. So, my mom allowed me to get a pair and a matching top (worth PhP 250). Yeah, I got a good bargain so my mom allowed me to get another pair of pants when it's my birthday or on some other day.. Most probably my birthday if and only if I get cash. After Victoria, we went home. I slept then watched like, half of the Ateneo VS La Salle game then went to the laundry, then back home. YEAAAAAH ATENEO WON!!!!!

Monday - Found out that lack of sleep could make a person gain weight more and be more emotional rather then being rational. No wonder why I have those emotional fits. I tend to be really cranky when I'm tired or stressed out. And unfortunately, those moments bring out the bratinella in me. Anyway, we practiced for our defense and I got our powerpoint for the defense from JB. A bit of editing, and we're done. Now all we have to do is PRACTICE, which we will do later.

Now you're wondering why I'm blogging in school eh? Let's see.

We have nothing to do this Comsci period and I most likely have zero time for other things later at night so, I blog right now. Tonight, I plan to practice for our defense on my own, read and reread our proposal over and over again, and maybe start studying for the exam. Exams are next week and my grades are going down. Well, not all grades. I'm doing well in Math and I'm doing my best to make my grade 1.00 this quarter. But, I'm really really expecting that my grade in Statistics, Chemistry, Filipino and Research to go down. That's like, FIVE UNITS downward. Maybe I could maintain my Chem grade if I got a 1.00 in my exam and in my lab reports.. Or if I get a good grade in our bonus quiz in Stat.. Or if I get a good grade in the defense and final research proposal.. As for Filipino, I'm not expecting anything amazing.

I find English easier than Filipino, and I bet a lot of you people would most likely agree with me. I speak Taglish (NOT Tagalog.. it's a dead language to me.. haha) more often than English but I write in English better. And yeah, I find it easier to read in English. Believe it or not, I passed Filipino class back in 1st year and 2nd year without reading Noli and El Fili. I just read those Taglish summaries online and voila, I passed. Reading a page of Twilight or any English book would take me about, 2-3 minutes but it would take me 20 OR MORE minutes to read a single page of Noli or El Fili. I know, I'm Filipino, but I suck at the native tongue. Sorry, sorry. But, I'm not alone! Ha, ha, ha.

Okay, I accidentally corrupted my file that contained my quiz in Comsci. Good thing Sir got to check it already. Whew! *randomness*

Due to my busy schedule, I haven't been taking pictures with my dear cellphone. Well, I did take some pictures but I didn't have the energy to place them here somehow. Oh by the way, my cellphone died. How? I dropped it last Saturday. I always drop my cellphone but it still works. However, my luck ran out this time and when I place the battery back inside my phone, boom. It couldn't read my SIM card. It would function without the SIM card like I could use the camera but, a cellphone is not a cellphone without a SIM card. So, I'm stuck to using my dad's old Nokia 8890 (yeah that tiny silver phone) and my SE P910. Fortunately, I might get a new phone next month (just in time for my birthday!) since my Smart plan could give me a new phone 18 months after getting my current cellphone. I got my Nokia 6288 (the one that died) last April 4, 2007 so.. 18 months after is October. Perfect! I hope they give out a free phone that has a nice camera (meaning more than 2 megapix and the flash works well at night). I'm hoping that they give out those cellphones that have Cybershot cameras so that I don't need to beg for a digicam, even if I want one. Also, it is possible that Smart would give a laptop rather than a cellphone. Cool huh? But, my dad said that laptops are cheaper than cellphones nowadays so he allowed me to get a new cellphone (the free one, of course) and he'd get me a laptop most probably next year. As for the digicam? I really want a Canon DSLR since I'm considering photography as a hobby and I want to take pictures with all the light effects then post it on Deviantart. Dad said that he'll think about it but he told me it's more appropriate if I get a camera when I'm in college so that I could ask my ninong to teach me how to take good pics, since he teaches photography at some university. I just forgot where.. Gaaah, so much for wishful thinking. But of course, my top priority is the free cellphone. Then the laptop (FOR RESEARCH!). Then the camera.

I'm thinking about asking for the camera as my graduation gift.. Hmmmm.. I'll think about it really well before I start having regrets. But, I don't think I'd be having much regrets in getting a camera like a DSLR since just thinking about taking pictures in Manila makes me ecstatic.

Speaking of Manila, my mom asked me if I'd be having a week off during sembreak I MEAN ALTERNATIVE CLASSES since Cebu Pacific has a promo that sells tickets to Manila at a more affordable price. I'm hoping and praying that we'd be having a long break so that I could get my butt back to Manila and scour every single mall there. I already have an itinerary, haha! First off, I'd go to Megamall (MY LOVE!!!), Galleria, Shangrila, Rockwell, Glorietta, Gateway, Trinoma, Serendra, Market Market, Mall of Asia, Greenhills, and Greenbelt. Maybe I'd only buy stuff at Greenhills since I kinda mastered the art of haggling already and I know when it's cheaper to buy. Wtf I'm so excited but I'm not even sure if I'm going back home.

So, that's all I'm gonna rant for now. I don't know when I'm gonna blog next.. Boo.

I think I'll post one pic.

19 days to go before the big one six *ehemehemMY16THBIRTHDAYehemehem*.

I'm not excited. Believe me.

Today is Saturday - Saturn's day. Hehehe. I woke up at around 8:30 already because I slept at around midnight last night. Before eating breakfast, I drank Psyllium (tama spelling) fiber so that I won't go hungry easily. Psyllium fiber is helpful in weight loss since it's a natural fat absorber. So for it to be used for weight loss, it must be taken in 30 minutes before eating. So yun ginawa ko. 30 minutes later, I wasn't that hungry so I resulted in eating Skyflakes with tuna. Yum. After eating breakfast, I took a bath since I'd be meeting Hannah and the rest at GMall. Manglibre si Hannah sa Pizza Hut kase birthday nya sa Tuesday. Wohoo! Then I got a text from Angel asking kung what time and where manglibre si Hannah kase gusto niya magsurprise entrance. Hehehe. I remember her telling us na di daw siya payagan. Anyway, while dressing up, I got to watch Pops In Seoul after I do not know how many years. I got to listen to some cool new songs (new for me since I'm not that updated in Kpop, except for FT Island related things) like One by Epik High (their MV has Jeong Ryu Won, the actress who played Kim Sam Soon!) and M Style by Lee Min Woo. Also, I got to see a glimpse of one of Rain's music videos when he was still the Justin Timberlake of South Korea (I think he still is now but it was more evident before. haha). The video was How To Escape The Sun and his dance moves were just, woah. It's better to watch Rain in his music videos dancing than seeing him dance in Clear commercials, seriouslyyy. Lmao. Want proof? Here's the music video!

It's Ahn So Hee! Haha.

While watching the show, I learned about a new portion there that you could tell a story of what's up with your life then request a song and if you have been chosen, you could win a prize! The story featured there was from kirihara from the Philippines (KABABAYAN NATIN ITO! WOHOO) and she shared something about her sister getting married (not sure about this, but something like it) and she requested One by Epik High. Madami talaga nanonood ng Pops In Seoul. Superrrr. Hahaha. Which is a good thing, by the way. Tumataas na ang chances na pumunta dito ang FT Island! Yeheeeey. So, I plan to join that whatever you call it thing in the show and I just wish I get chosen so that I could promote Paradiso. Talk about widespread advertising. Anyway, we left right after my dad got dressed since malelate na ako sa lakad ko.

When I got to GMall, the first one I saw was Hannah. So, we waited for the others. The others who came were Ate Danica, Darlene, Robien, Kuya Mitch and Roeland. Jp came in next, then Angel made her surprise entrance. Hahaha. We ordered 1 Cheesy Pops, 2 Triple Stuffed Crust (all 3 pizzas were Super Supreme), 3 Caesar Salads and I had a Black Forest for my drink. Siguro this means na hindi na dapat ako maging kuripot pagka nanglibre ako sa birthday ko.. Hehehe. Hannah, thanks sa libre!!! :) And duuuh. We camwhored again. Alangan eh. Hahaha.

After eating, Kuya Mitch had to leave since magtuturo pa siya ng Kids training sa Holiday. Paglabas namin, may nakita kaming tarp ni John Lloyd Cruz and napagtripan namin magpapicture dun kase sabi ni Ate Danica HOT DAW si John Lloyd. Hahahaha!

While on our way to the 2nd floor to get a pic taken sa Yoyong's, we ran into Shi-Em! (si JM, actually. haha). Tapos biglang nawala si Robien (ulit). When we got to the second floor, napagtripan namin pumasok sa loob ng Adidas kase may posters dun ng players ng Ateneo and Lasalle. Hehehe. Swerte ang AdMU and DLSU kase sponsor nila ang Adidas and they have really nice jackets. Lmao. And duuuuh. More camwhoring. Hehehe.

After that, we went to iCenter first to get Jp's iPod fixed and we also got to look around. Darrrrn. Nakita ko na yung iPod ko is 6k nalang and I got it for 13k. Oh welllll. That's life. Hahaha. And we got to take a picture using the Macbook Air displayed there. It wasn't as thin as I expected it to be but it was really nice. Apparently, a lot of people who tried using the Macbook Air on display took pics of themselves too using its built in camera. Hahaha.

After going to the iCenter, we went to Yoyong's to have our picture taken. Naaliw kami sa mga stuffed toys, mas lalo na si Roeland na sobrang aliw kay Snoopy. He looked like a lost little boy. LMAO.

After having our pic taken, may nakita akong store na nagbebenta ng shutter shades. So, I called Ate Danica's attention and the both of us hurriedly went inside. Hahaha unfortunately, they only sold the shades in red and green. Gusto sana namin white. Anyway, after that, we parted ways kase pupuntang Holiday si Dar, Hannah and Roeland, nagsama si Jp and Angel tapos sumama si Ate Danica sa akin dahil sabi ng dad ko na pupunta kami sa SM and may lakad si Ate Danica dun. So Ate Dan and I went to Pancake House and nung nakita namin sina Angel and Jp, sumama kami papuntang NBS but Ate Dan told me na mauna na siya kase baka malate siya sa kanyang lakad. So I went to NBS with Angel and Jp. I asked the customer service kung may Twilight na (for the nth time!) kaso wala pa daw. BOOHOO. Then I went to the books section to check out some books. I saw some Murakami books that seem interesting and I also saw some Tagalog romance novels (you know those really cheap ones? yeah those) with Angelina Jolie, Keira Knightley and Gisele Bündchen on the cover. OKAAAAY that was weird. Tska nagpakafeeling photographer nanaman ako so I took pics again. Waaah.

Nakita din namin si Ma'am Jenny sa NBS! Hehehe. After a while, I left na rin kase I sensed na my dad was done eating and timing talaga when I met my dad again in Pancake House kase he was done paying the bill and was about to leave na rin. So we went to SM to do the groceries. In the Fish section, I saw this super duper big fish with big scary eyes. As in it was positioned na parang center of attention siya. If you were there at SM supermarket kanina, you'd get what I mean, unless nabenta na siya at di mo na naabutan. Hehehe. Ohyeah, I saw Ma'am Janice there. Nagulat ako kase someone suddenly poked my tummy tapos yun pala si Ma'am Janice. Plus, I got used to seeing her in GMall. Lol. Anyway, here's the big fishie I've been talking about.

Cher Marie Tuazon, this is for you! Hahaha.

While my dad was gonna pay for the stuff we bought, I went to NBS to buy stuff that I needed for school. I saw a pen with pink ink! And no, it isn't a MyGel pen. It's Stabilo. Hahaha. After going to NBS, I went back to the grocery to meet my dad again and umalis na kami. We went to Damosa to pick up the laundry and we also went to the Swiss Deli to buy salad greens there and some other food stuff. After that, my dad told me that I drive when we get inside the village so that I could learn more. So went we got into the village, my dad and I switched seats and I drove our car. Don't believe me?

Believe me now. Haha. 3 months nalang pwede na ako! Yay.

When we got to the house, I brought all the stuff we bought and the laundry down with our maid and I went upstairs to finish my homework. So far, I already encoded my draft for Research and I'll do more fixing tomorrow. I also got to memorize like, 4 lines of Like The Molave and I've done until the data part of my Chem lab report. Maybe after this, I'd encode my composition in Filipino. Maybe I'd just cram my Chem lab report tomorrow since ideas come out of my mind easily when I cram. Hehehe. After that, I didn't each much for dinner and now I'm still stuck here. Roflmao. XD

And the reason why I didn't train is because I'm too damn tired. There's too much stuff to do. Also, we planned to join the Emcor badminton tournament this August. Okay lang sumali kase wala naman masyadong gagawin by that time. Partner ko si Hannah. Magpartner si Angel and Darlene, and Robien and Jp. Sasali kami ng Level F I think.. HAHAHA! =))

While surfing on Youtube, I came across this video while searching the MV of Make A Wish by Ellegarden. It's a Korean girl playing songs using her electric violin. Absolutely AMAZING. She has videos playing Canon Rock, Tears In Heaven and other stuff. And she even has the theme song of Friends! Lol. I highly recommend watching it! Dunno what her name is though. T_T By the way, she has the 6th most subscribed channel in South Korea. I wonder if the placed here on Star King already.. Haha.
